Python MySQL - Create Table
Syntax
Following is the syntax to create a table in
MySQL:-
CREATE TABLE table_name(
column1 datatype,
column2 datatype,
column3 datatype,.....
columnN datatype,);

3. Following query creates a table named EMPLOYEE
in MySQL with five columns namely, FIRST_NAME,
LAST_NAME, AGE, SEX and, INCOME.
Example
mysql> CREATE TABLE EMPLOYEE(
FIRST_NAME CHAR(20) NOT NULL,
LAST_NAME CHAR(20),
AGE INT,
SEX CHAR(1),
INCOME FLOAT
);Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.42 sec)

4. The DESC statement gives you the description of
the specified table. Using this you can verify if the
table has been created or not as shown below
Example

5. Creating a table in MySQL using python
The method named execute() (invoked on the
cursor object) accepts two variables:-
A String value representing the query to be
executed.
An optional args parameter which can be a
tuple, list or, dictionary, representing the
parameters of the query (values of the place
holders).
It returns an integer value representing the
number of rows effected by the query.

6. Once a database connection is established, you
can create tables by passing the CREATE TABLE
query to the execute() method.
In short, to create a table using python 7minus;
Import mysql.connector package.
Create a connection object using the
mysql.connector.connect() method, by passing
the user name, password, host (optional
default: localhost) and, database (optional) as
parameters to it.
Create a cursor object by invoking the cursor()
method on the connection object created
above.
Then, execute the CREATE TABLE statement by
passing it as a parameter to the execute()
method.

7. Example
Following example creates a table named
Employee in the database mydb.
import mysql.connector
#establishing the connection
conn = mysql.connector.connect(
user='root', password='password', host='127.0.0.1',
database='mydb')#Creating a cursor object using the cursor()
method
cursor = conn.cursor()#Dropping EMPLOYEE table if already
exists.
cursor.execute("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS EMPLOYEE")

8. #Creating table as per requirement
sql ='''CREATE TABLE EMPLOYEE(
FIRST_NAME CHAR(20) NOT NULL,
LAST_NAME CHAR(20),
AGE INT,
SEX CHAR(1),
INCOME FLOAT
)'''
cursor.execute(sql)#Closing the connection
conn.close()
